Your house is on fire, and you can only save one thing.

What is it?

Assuming that all other people can make it out on their own, of course, and are thus left out of the problem.

The house isn't on fire, is it Itsuki?

[philoxidizes]

Don't worry, this is a purely theoretical question.

[furyxguns.livejournal.com]

Well the only thing I'd want to save would be my guns, but those are always on me. I guess I'd save my cat.

Unless there's an option of throwing a person into the fire.

[philoxidizes]

That wasn't part of the question, I'm afraid.

You have a cat?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

No question. Riddlecane.

[philoxidizes]

And what would that be?

[wannabesanta.livejournal.com]

Assuming he's not in my pocket. 'Pen Pen'

[philoxidizes]

I assume that isn't a nickname for a writing utensil.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

The people can make it out but my pets as well?

[philoxidizes]

I suppose you can interpret it any way you wish. I would expect that a pet would be the most common answer, so if you would like to assume that they could get out on their own as well, that would be fine.

[maraich]

I guess my scrapbook.

[philoxidizes]

Memories can be a precious thing.

[Locked]

[pandorabox]

My monocle.

[Locked]

[philoxidizes]

The one you wear as Kid, correct? Does it have any particular abilities, or is it for sentimental value?

[seventh-gospel.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm assuming Treble and Allegro would be smart enough to get out on their own...

So I don't know, really. I don't own anything I'd want to save, except maybe my own skin.

[philoxidizes]

It's refreshing to find someone who isn't particularly materialistic.

[nobaybreezes.livejournal.com]

Field hockey stick.

[philoxidizes]

Any particular reason?

[attorneyatlol]

Assuming this is a hypothetical question... Probably my photo albums.

[philoxidizes]

As I said above, I suppose memories are an important thing to save.

[autobot-girl.livejournal.com]

Aw man... Only one thing?

Well I would definitely save my key.

[philoxidizes]

I'm assuming this isn't a normal key.

[originaldragoon.livejournal.com]

My Dragoon Spirit.

[philoxidizes]

Forgive me if I'm not sure what that is.

[ripp-ner.livejournal.com]

Even things that would already be on your person? I'm attached to my watch, so to speak.

Why ask? Boredom?

[philoxidizes]

Curiosity. As for your question, you can assume what you'd like.

[vicodindose.livejournal.com]

Do hookers count as people?

[philoxidizes]

I would think so.

[philoxidizes]

And what would that be?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

The TARDIS is invincible!

[philoxidizes]

That's a relief.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Other than various personal effects that shouldn't logically be counted... I suppose I'd save my copy of Pirate Hurricane, my best friend's first attempt at writing a novel.

[philoxidizes]

Is that particular copy important somehow? I would think a book would be easily replaced.

1/2

[dormition]

...I'm not sure.

2/2

[dormition]

Are you just asking or are you fishing?

[serenacelia.livejournal.com]

Does my entire shoe collection count? Excuse me if that's shallow~

[philoxidizes]

I'm not sure if that would count as one item, but I understand your meaning.

[gryff-booklover.livejournal.com]

My wand.

[philoxidizes]

I would assume something like that would be quite disastrous to lose.

[bangbangjustice.livejournal.com]

I'd say my ARMs, but I'm usually carrying those...

I doubt fire could do any harm to it, but provided that I'm wearing my gunbelt already, I'd... well, no, I keep Moor Gault's medium on me, too! Hm...

I guess I don't know what I'd grab in a fire, then!

[philoxidizes]

I suppose you're lucky that your important possessions are fireproof or already with you.

[myeggo-ispreggo.livejournal.com]

My alibi guitar. That thing cost me a year's worth of allowance to buy.

[philoxidizes]

No wonder you would choose to save it, then.

[u-no-mouji.livejournal.com]

It's definitely going to be my car.

Everything else can be covered by the insurance.

[philoxidizes]

You don't have insurance on your car? Or is it important to you somehow?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...well, I suppose that I should save one of the objects of worship or the temple bell. I don't think that's really what you meant, however.

[philoxidizes]

People often place what they should save over what they wish to save.

[samuraiprosecutor]

Assuming that animals aren't included under the category of 'people who can escape by their own means,' getting Sieghard to safety would be my first priority.

[philoxidizes]

You can include them or not as you wish. I had assumed that most people would choose to save their pets first, if they are not included.
